I wish I would have started wearing DS sooner. I am purchasing a Sleeping Baby Productions ring sling on Monday that was listed for sale locally. DS will be 5 weeks Sunday and is about 8 1/2lbs.

Jan makes the best slings! it's never too late to start wearing your LO

I'm sure you and LO will both love it

We have the Moby, infantino mei tai, and the ergo. I use the mei tai (LO least favorite) and the Moby in the house. I use ergo with blanket under her out and about. She likes to push away from me in the Moby. This was hilarious, but I took her out right after taking this pic:

I use mostly wraps and ring slings, sometimes mei tais…bit of a carrier geek

@redmar - For safety, you want to have your LO a bit higher on your body and more upright. Baby's face should always be visible. There are some good videos here on pouch positioning that might help: https://babywearinginternational.org/articles.php

I also have lots of info on choosing and using a carrier on my blog for those looking…www.becomingmamas.com/babywearing.

I have an ergo for travel, ring slings in tan and black (to match different outfits

) a rebozo, a Moby which I don't really care for, and a woven wrap.

@CAMag‌ that tattoo is Valkyrie wings - he got it because "fortune favors the bold". He is pretty much covered

@ncbelle‌ how do you stop the fabric on the O rings from folding and getting all overlapped?

I have a snuggie but haven't used it yet. I had a ktan but didn't realize they came in different sizes and it was the wrong size so I gave it away.

I HAVE A K'TAN AND I CANT FIGURE IT THE FACK OUT. I've tried with the baby a whopping 2 times. I want to wear her so bad!!

YouTube videos ftw. It's really easy once you get it.

DF has used our Beco a few times. We also have a Moby but haven't tried it because we are assuming it is too warm.

I haven't been able to baby wear because I'm still feeling so weak :-q

I have a mei tai sling I picked up used for super cheap and it works great.

cinnamonsmiles · July 2014

I have a Wrapsody Hybrid that I just started using, though I've been eying a ring sling...we will see how far that goes

ncbelle · July 2014

elsa1688 (or any one else in need of a good video for any carrier!!), there are some great videos here including one on threading the ring sling (which is the problem you are having: https://babywearinginternational.org/articles.php - just look under the link for your carrier type. There are some good videos on youtube…but also some bad ones! These videos have all been created/selected by the babywearing educators at Babywearing International

Boba wrap for now, beco Gemini when she's bigger

RedMar · July 2014

@ncbelle‌ - thank you for the tip! I was trying to mimic the mom on the cover- fail!

jenn72178 · July 2014

Mommy win -wore LO in the Ergo while cooking dinner tonight!

jenn72178 · July 2014

@StrawberryDreams219‌ I know you have experience with this carrier. Does it look like she's in there right? Her face looks at my chest and I give her some room to breath obviously. If not, any suggestions?

jenn72178 · July 2014

Thank you @StrawberryDreams219‌ I was leaning her forward a bit to get the pic. She is always at 'kiss' level and I can see her whole face so thanks! I think I've got it ftm here sorry for the silly questions
